KSwiss Hypercourt Express 2 2E Vapor/Navy Men's Shoes
4.5
Plush comfort, and support. This version has a 2E wide fit.
Evolving to emulate the quickness of a running shoe, the KSwiss Hypercourt Express 2 2E is now lighter and faster while still offering all-around comfort! This extra wide version has an upper which has been constructed to be even more flexible and remains supportive -- making it a great shoe to push your footwork to its limits. This will be a seamless transition from the previous version as they will feel plush on your feet while still allowing you to feel connected to the court. The outsole blends traction and durability and offers solid performance on any court surface.
- Upper: Seamless synthetic materials and mesh for comfort and breathability combine with DuraWrap Flex to provide a more flexible shoe. Added protection in the toe for extra durability. An Ortholite liner for added cushioning.
- Midsole: Surgelite material provides added comfort, shock absorption, and cuts down on weight for a very speedy feel. Midfoot shank for added stability and unwanted twisting.
- Outsole: Non-marking Aosta 7.0 rubber outsole in a modified herringbone tread pattern provides excellent traction and good durability on any court surface.
- Color: Vapor / Navy

GoodOrdered wide fit for my feet, which feels more comfortable than typical tennis shoes. Played several games with it and it feels ok. Price is decent but would order more and rate 6 stars (if possible) if it is even more budget friendly.
Wide Width and Durability but…I started wearing the Hypercourt Express 2 Wide exclusively about a year ago. These and the Babolat SFX are the only shoes I’ve found that work for me, needing a wide width without having to go up one full size. I also liked the styling of them. But I noticed, after about two to three months, the SFX midsole would start to deteriorate whereas the KSwiss would remain supportive much, much longer. So I switched to them exclusively, rotating two to three pairs weekly for my drill and match play. All was good until I developed my first ever bunion despite wearing good socks with cushioning and compression (Adidas 365). I’d never had one before. The podiatrist said the shoes I was wearing didn’t have the pronation support I needed and my foot simply collapsed, causing the bunion. The shoes felt very supportive, giving me that locked-in feel so this came as a surprise. Were they the sole culprit? I don’t know, but I’ll probably look to switch to something else in the near future. Good luck out there and happy hitting!

Comments: I wear an 11 2E in Allen Edmunds American made dress shoes for reference. I had to go to 11.5 2E in the KSwiss, but other than that they fit great. Once adjusted the length, width and height all worked well. I have a high instep as well as wide which eliminates the "bootie" shoes. The Hypercourt Express 2 (2E) fits well and seems soft enough for the first outing. One thing I would like is for the laces to go further down the shoe, so the fit and snugness could be tweaked even further. I wear New Balance 2E tennis shoes and I think this 2E is a sliver wider. With limited 2E options, this seems like a solid shoe. I might post a follow up in a month or two. I'm a weak 4.0 who plays 3-6 hours per week singles, drills and workshops.

Comments: Out of the box impression, the 2E and normal size feels good. They are not overly wide in the toe box, like a size 4E, so the feet aren't sliding around. However, there's space there without any super restrictive material on either side. Some wide shoes have structure on the side, typically the inner foot, that may press on the inner foot, but I'm not feeling that with these. I suspect anyone desiring form-fitting shoes may knock a point off for that, but they feel good to me. Bottom line, so far, so good. Next step is to try on the court.

Comments: After buying tennis shoes for more than 40 years, I can say that the KSwiss Hypercourt Express 2 are the second best tennis shoes I've ever owned! With the exception of New Balance shoes, which I don't like, it has always been difficult to find wide sizes; however, these KSwiss shoes in a double E width fit like a glove. These really grab and hold the wearer's heel in place; there is only one pair of tennis shoes that did a better job. Also, there is no break-in period, period. Put them on and go out and play three sets; no sore feet and no blisters. These KSwiss shoes are indeed great, but adidas made the all-time best tennis shoes called Pods. Steffi Graf wore Pods for two years.
